At a quick glimpse, I honestly thought this young Hollywood celebrity was Lindsay Lohan but I guessed wrong, instead, it’s the popular Disney Star Miss Miley Cyrus.

We’re not too many years far apart, but this little starlet is growing up so fast! Personally, I’m not digging her hardcore rocker chic look of a ripped backless top, torn-at-the-knees and bleach spotted jeans, but I do love one specific accessory she’s sporting and its found dangling off her shoulder.

Giant Studs, luscious leather, why of course it’s by no other than Balenciaga and that’ll be the top handle Pompon tote to be exact. I love the awkward-like shape of the Pompon, it’s so different yet functional. You have that roundish body lined with leather pull strings at the top, double rolled top handles to carry at the crook of the arm or carry by shoulder by means of a detachable strap.

You can shop Balenciaga online via it’s boutique or through Authentic Balenciaga on eBay

I love satchel’s, especially when I can spot one in black. I usually don’t like embossed leather but “The Stinger” Snakeskin- Embossed Leather Satchel by Jack Rabbit is drop dead gorgeous. Black leather always looks amazing with gold tone hardware, and I love the fact that it has two separate compartments. I’ve never owned a satchel that had two different compartments, but I would imagine my bag would be a lot more organized if I did. The only “con” to that though, is that I’m sure there isn’t much room for your essentials but style wise the bag is amazing.

When I think prints on a designer handbag, the first designer that comes to mind is Emilio Pucci. Of course other parties enjoy throwing their interpretation of luxe prints on their accessories as well, such as Prada has done in their Spring/Summer ’10 collection.

If it wasn’t for the signature triangular logo found hidden within the prints, I would have never guessed these pieces were in fact by Prada.

Architectural fashion seems to be a hot trend right now, and when I came across the Novella Royale “Mister Studded” Tote I was in awe. It’s not a bag I would personally buy to add to my collection but it’s pretty interesting to look at.

What really caught my eye was not what the bag looked like, but the hidden features about it. The “Mister Studded” Tote was handmade in the U.S.A. from recycled leather.
